2002 FIRS Men's Inline Hockey World Championships - Rules

Rules

For standing purposes, points shall be awarded as follows:

  • 2 points for a win in regulation or overtime
  • 1 point for a tie in regulation or overtime
  • No points for a loss in regulation or overtime

If a game is tied after regulation time in the round robin, the game ends in a tie. In the placement and medal rounds, a twelve-minute four-on-four sudden-death overtime session is played.

If teams are tied in a standing based on points, the following tie-breakers are applied: 1) The most points earned in direct games involving tied teams. 2) The best goal differential in direct games involving tied teams. 3) The most goal scored in direct games involving tied teams. 4) Follow steps 1, 2 and 3 with games involving the highest non-tied team in the same group. 5) Repeat step 4 with games involving the second highest non-tied team in the same group. 6) Continue this process with all non-tied team games.
